Great win. We can beat anyone if the d keeps playing well and gets turnovers

Great team win. Everybody showed up and showed out.

Baker was money today, period.

Chubb and the o line just destroyed the bengals on the ground.

And our defense once again played great against a very good offense. 16 points.

Looks like OBJ was the issue. The entire team played exactly like it should: a team.

Damn good win. So proud of my guys. Much respect to Baker for showing out after all the ish he took all week long.

Idk about y'all but all I saw was 20 flying all over the field. Hill did his thing too. The D really shut ish down after the first 2 Gals drives.

What a win!

Ward's pick 6 was awesome and the play of the game.
Big day for Newsome, Ward, and Hill.
Didn't miss OBJ at all. He may have been the problem with the offense?
DL did a great job pressuring Borrow.
Baker made the plays when he had to.
Chubb had a nice day also.

This was a huge win and what we really needed!

This game was fun. After the Pick 6 we never looked back. It set the tone for the whole game.

Nice team win.

I was wondering how the team would pull together after the noise of the last several days.

The team answered!


If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

- The Browns played complementary football today. Great team win.

- Huge shoutout to OBJ Sr. for expediting his son's release. It's been a long time coming and much needed. The second half of last year wasn't a fluke

- Baker was back throwing accurate deep and mid-range. Big game from him.

- Great game by Chubb. Build him a statue.

- DPJ is going to be really good.

- Inside the redzone with goal to go is still Stefanski's Rubik's cube.

- McLaughlin missed one on purpose to remind people he's human.

- Troy Hill had himself a day.

- Hats off to the defense for pressuring Burrow all day and forcing turnovers.

- Can't have the sloppy penalties early in the game.

- It's amazing how much OBJ held this offense and team back. Too bad the Browns didn't release him prior to the Steelers game.

- A special thanks to NYG and JAX. And to Charley Hughlett for always doing your job.

Go Browns (and Cavs)!

This team is fun to watch when clicking on all cylinders!
Great game by the defense and finally starting to force some turnovers.
What else can be said about this Oline and Chubb. Solid effort all around and they are gonna be a team to be feared when we get Kareem back in the cold weather months.
DPJ stepped up big time and this may be the beginning of his rise to stardom with Odell gone.
Baker made some big throws and they finally opened up the passing game.
Much needed and very impressive win!!
I hope they resign Teller and Bitonio and keep this Oline together!!

Whomever is in charge of this Bronwns offense is not ready for Prime time.

A Prime time ready team would not have that disgusting offensive possession in the 2nd half 3rd quarter.

2 2nd half possessions by the offense show the offense is not ready for prime time or playoffs.

3:19 to go in the 3rd, up 18 points 34-16, the Browns make 3 te3rrible play calls, for 3 terrible results and don't even properly use up the clock.

2nd! The Browns started a possession on the Bengalss 8 yard line after the turnover return, an event which should give your team momentum, and to capitalize, the Browns lay an EGG on offense
D'Ernest Johnson tackled at the 1 yard line. ... 3rd and goal. 4th and goal, long field goal.
The drive started at the bengals 8!!!


Browns can Pretend, but, this kind of Scrap won't be enough to sweep the Ravens.

and if they don't Sweep the Ravens, they won't be a playoff team, this year.


Can Deshaun Watson play better for the Browns, than Baker Mayfield would have? ... Now the Games count.

Great win on the road.

Penalties were a problem, luckily they didn't play a part the outcome. That being said, they were all stupid unnecessary mistakes. They roughing on Day was a crap call.

DPJ is back, and ready to be the guy.

On defense, Ward played an great game, he and Newsome held a powerful passing attack in check. Good pressure from the Dline, but I still have a problem with the LBs going for the strip instead nof stuffing the runner. I saw Walker on several occasions allow a runner extra yards by just pulling at the ball, square up and drop the guy. Joe Woods finally let our DBs do what they are best at, man to man. He also called some well timed blitzes. Myles was again being held all game, and still was effective.

I don't know what effect OBJ had on Baker, but it was very noticeable that he seemed more relaxed. Guys being in the right spot does give a QB confidence. I don't know if that was the problem, but the offense looked way more in sync today.

I want to give a shout out to Njoku, I saw he throw some crucial blocks today. Harrison had a good one too, on one of Chubbs big runs.

I bet nobody will be commenting on the "playcalling " this week.

Division is very close, and the Ravens won, but had a rough time with the Vilings, and were manhandled by the Bengals. There is still a chance to win this division, I just hope the bring the fire every week, like they did today.

IF you want to settle for 2nd place and not hold your team for what they did with those 2nd half posessions that will eventlually wind up in losses.
If you want to be happy with half effort, or whole possessions on offense that are wasted,
with not knowing how to play with expectations or playing with the lead.

If you just want the Browns to just be another team that isn't winners then go take your mediocrity elsewhere.

This isn't 2011, this isn't the year where they can't be special and it doesn't matter. This team has what it takes, it should be held to not making whole boneheaded possessions on offense!

If you want to be satisfied with Sorry play, fine.
But I won't be satisfied with what everyone knows can be better!

JC...

-How good was the coverage by Denzel, Troy Hill, and Newsome...All them contested catches and were lights out...AJ Green flashed a few plays

-Hoping Greedy's injured shoulder isnt serious, as he was playing well for us

-John Johnson 3 had his best game of the season, Harrison played well too imo

-These dumb penalties need to stop, I used to get so frustrated as it was always Myles, now it seems like is everyone else and often Clowney.

-McDowell needs to play more disciplined...ditto for Clowney, gaps were often left unattended.

-Wyatt Teller needs resigned...what an animal in the trenches

-Baker had some really nice throws, luckily no turnovers...left some big plays out there as well (which could be said of most QBS) however he scared me not putting the Bengals out for good...Still needs to clean up, but had some really nice throws in anticipation too.

-Jarvis's pitch was awful

-Can't say enough for Nick Chubb...just a beast of a RB

-Be really nice once Hunt is back, that will help Baker a lot imho...as he brings attention to the D, while being a supportive outlet for Baker.

-Did Tyler Boyd even have a catch?

-Despite a huge lead, I'm sure I'm not the only one whom was still scared of blowing the lead...Our offense seems to pause at the worst of the times.

Great win today. I thought it was our best game of the year. Offense is better without OBJ quite simply. DPJ is one of my favorite players.

We may even see a phasing out of Landry to be honest.

I was also impressed with Hill today. He’s best when he’s blitzing honestly

I'd be fine with that. His theatrics after making simple catches gets very tiring.

The penalty after the skirmish between many on both teams to single out a brown was BS.
The roughing the passer when Burrows was tackled late in the game was BS

One game does not a season make - but damn ! Great team win. A complete game and team win.

- Did it without our RT.
- Did it without Hunt.
- Newsome and Greedy showing why Newsome was the right pick in the draft.
- Baker being Baker and shoulder hopefully bothering him less and less.
- Aggressive play calling with a lead ... KS seems be learning.
- DPJ making us instantly forget about the lil biatch that we just let go... hope that continues.
- Tip of the hat to Joe Woods. I've been concerned for a few games - but outside of the mindless offsides and bad discipline - they played an explosive offense VERY well.

Other than the Kitchens year and the first 6 games in KS new offense (and 2 bad weather games) - Baker has been VERY good. He was VERY good today. I know he's polarizing and there are folks that love to hate on him no matter what - but I hope he stays a Brown and continues to prove the doubters wrong. I always said it was nuts that people said he played better without a talent like OBJ as an option to throw to - but I think I was wrong. Again - it's one game. But the Bengals D is legit and their O is legit.


The more things change the more they stay the same.

First, the bad.

The pre-snap penalties are getting on my nerves. Lining up in the neutral zone should never happen, let alone three times in the same damn game.

The stupid playcall to run the option with Landry, when we have Nick Chubb to run the football. Ski has to stop being so damn cute in the red zone.

Other than that, we played a complete team game. Ward’s pick-6 changed the game, a real Bengal-breaker.

Baker was efficient, hit the big play to DPJ and threw the ball well. He even showed some touch on that 4th quarter pass to DPJ, not so much on the end zone throw to NJoku: ball has to be thrown higher there.

Really loved our secondary today, and we got some seriously heat on Burro, after he picked us apart early.

I gotta say, this wasn’t a must-win, but really close. Had to keep pace with Baltimore, had to beat a division foe. Good road win, and it’s gonna be a bumpy ride from here on out so buckle up, dawgs!

Good news is hopefully in the next week(s) we will get JOK and Hunt back, Conklin hopefully after 3 weeks...and praying Greedy is back soon as well, anyone ever hear anything about Jacob Phillips returning for us? I know it was mentioned he could be back towards the end of the year, but never heard any updates on his recovery.
